What is DNA?
DNA stands for DeoxyriboNucleic Acid, and it is
the building block of life! DNA is the substance that you find in
your genes, and that determines everything about you - whether you
have blue eyes, your height, and more! Try these activities to find
out more.
Designer Baby
Play with genes to make a baby the way you want it in this game from Bionet! This fun game shows you how scientists can influence hair colour, eye colour and more. Try it, it's cool.
